I am not able to install two LabVIEW applications on the same PC. I have to uninstall the first application to be able to install the second. Is there a way to avoid this?

I have written two LabVIEW applications. The first acquires data from three different devices, displays the data and writes it to a file. The second application reads the logged data and displays it on screen.

I can install the first application and run it, but I can only install the second application if I uninstall the first application.

Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Are you installing the applications using an installer created with the LV application builder?

What version of LV are you using?

Do you have a dedicated build script for each installer or do you always switch the settings of a single build script (which would be a reason for this behavior!)?

hope this helps,

Which Labview version do you use?

Thank you Norbert B.

I was installing applications using an installer built using the LV application builder and LabVIEW version 8.6.

I had cloned the previous build specifications for the application builder and installer and changed the names and details. As you suggested, this must have been causing the problem. When I deleted these and started again with a new application build specification and installer, the application installed without a problem. Many thanks again.
